The Chinese are here to grab and leech on our resources again.

I hope there will be stringent regulations to protect the environment and also prevent them from fleecing the state and country of our dues.

Government should follow up on the agreement with them setting up a battery manufacturing plant in proximity to this processing/extracting plant

If the Chinese can grab and leech on our resources doesn't it tell our useless both leaders and followers we as a people are?

1. At some point, we got to stop paying these ransoms, then when the kidnappers wake up and see there is no money in it, they would immediately end the business.

Yes, I know I am advocating something that is 'bad' and yes, I probably won't follow my advice if (God forbid) someone close to me, or loved one was kidnapped. But at some point, we got to stop giving these people money. The more money we pay them, the more they will kidnap, the more they will attract more people into the business. When would it stop.?

2. We got to fund our police better, and the police themselves should set up a specialist anti-kidnapping squad. It is time we fought this thing fire for fire. Enough is enough. It is obvious this cannot be fought the current way, we got to change the methods of warfare now.

3. Yes it is bad that we got APC again for another 4 years. But, let us put pressure on them still to lead us well. If dem no hear us, dem go see people's wrath on the streets soon. Also, put pressure on your governor and LG chairman. Not to be grumbling on nairaland we go do am.

Thanks for the responses. At the end of the day, the lesson of the Danegeld.

Over a thousand years ago, the English were under repeated invasion by the Danes. Them danes were coming in, kidnapping and looting, and killing. The Englisc thought that by paying the Danes a substantial amount in gold., the Danes would go away...so they did and kept on doing.

Result

1.Danes took over a large part of England and settled in the area

2.Danes eventually displaced the royal family, and became kings of England.

Right.

At some point, we either keep on paying OR we stop and we see. Eff,, there is no easy answer, and it is effing sad we don't have a sane government past or present that would properly fund the police.

Stop paying what?
Didn't you read that even the former DSS director paid ransom?
You are asking Nigerians to stop paying when the authorities can't track phone calls of the kidnappers plz leave Nigerians alone when useless leaders can't protect themselves

This isn't true...

I didn't watch the video... But going by the headline.

False and disrespectful.

They are top management level civil servants who have worked hard and honestly for years (some upwards of 25 - 30 years) and have been able acquire modest property and send their wards to be educated in other parts of the world. Not because the money they have is in abundance but some go as far as acquiring loans.

You can't tell me a top level manager at NNPC for instance must steal before acquiring property or sending his kids to study abroad. Especially if he has worked and saved deligently for a considerable period of time.

This statement is quite a disrespect and discouragement to honest and hardworking civil servants... Especially the young and up coming ones looking to make a career out of the civil service!

Take it from me you are a crook

The banking sector in Nigeria is the most Parasitic, Criminally minded, satanic, demonic and wicked of all sectors
The most corrupt, a prostitution cartel that is why an Economist not a banker should always be the CBN governor.
The banks in Nigeria are contributing nothing but hardship to the citizens of Nigeria while at the same time killing the country economically
While every sectors of the economy are feeling the heat, companies are shutting down, people are not saving and are losing their jobs yet banks are turning up unbelievable profits, how come?

Look at the owners of Access Bank instead of going into production manufacturing they are building universities so as to cash out sharp sharp. They don't fund the real sectors of the economy but only things that will bring money sharp sharp

We need a Soludo that will come and kill these wicked banks that allow our women to prostitute, steal from us by charges and deduction, if not for OPAY and other PSBs we for de see shege pro max from Zenith UBA Access and other demonic commercial banks

Attacking the symptoms instead of treating the cause.

Dollar scarcity is a supply and demand issue.

Give us stable power, and factories will start popping up everywhere. Once local manufacturing kicks off, we won't need to import so much, reducing demand.

Supply will increase when foreign investors regain confidence in us. For this to happen, the govt first has to start making coherent policies, tackle insecurity, and generally become more able to the masses. We also need to explore other commodities for exporting besides oil.


That's it. All these CBN directives are band aids that won't affect anything in the long run.

Which kind supply and demand, in this bitting times who is demanding what in Nigeria?

What is happening is baseless speculations and thievery by the commercial banks and currency cabals
Are you telling me that demand for automobiles, electronics or whatever in Nigeria where many citizens purchasing powers has been eroded is high or what?
Foreign companies have shut down is it because of demand or what?
The Economy situation in Nigeria has nothing to do with basic economic issues like production or demand and supply but artificial factors created by the cabals run economy of Nigeria
Dollar is N1500 becos of more and more Nigerians are looking for dollars or companies all na lies

Companies are shutting down

Go and ask the fuel stations if they are selling more fuel to customers or if more fuel stations have shut down
Purchasing power of people is almost zero except for food yet people are saying supply and demand wetin

Like the CBN Governor said the naira is seriously under valued and this is the only time I will agree with him

As a Christian, stop doing evangelism in the core north else you will just die for nothing

Just like how you Christians don’t want to hear anything about their Allah, these abokis also don’t want to hear anything about your Jesus and even ready to lynch anyone that preach Jesus to them

Till today we haven’t gotten justice for Deborah and the perpetrators are walking freely as if nothing ever happened

You this Southern Bread and Butter Christians that is why you guys must forever respect Christians in terrible environment if you can't evangelise plz just keep quiet
Why are you picking faults in a human expressing is God given right, how did you think Christianity got to your ancestors village
